Testing Distributional Granger Causality With Entropic Optimal Transport
ABSTRACT We develop a novel nonparametric test for Granger causality in distribution based on entropic optimal transport. Unlike classical mean‐based approaches, the proposed method directly compares the full conditional distributions of a response variable with and without the history of a candidate predictor.

Information‐Theoretic Approach to Financial Market Modeling
ABSTRACT The paper treats the financial market as a communication system, using four information‐theoretic assumptions to derive an idealized model with only one parameter. State variables are scalar stationary diffusions. The model maximizes the surprisal of the market and minimizes the Kullback–Leibler divergence between the benchmark‐neutral pricing

ABSTRACT This paper investigates short‐term behavior of implied volatility of derivatives written on a market index when the index is constructed using a ranking procedure. Even when stock prices follow geometric Brownian motion dynamics, the ranking mechanism can lead to the observed term structure of at‐the‐money (ATM) implied volatility skew for ...

This paper analyzes the impact of the U.S.‐China Tension Index (UCT) on macroeconomic fluctuations in 32 countries using time series models from January 1999 to February 2024. The VAR model reveals that UCT shocks generate financial volatility and fluctuations in

Climate Shocks and Unemployment Claims
ABSTRACT Using a US state–level climate risk measure and the panel local projections framework, this study analyzes both linear and asymmetric effects of climate shocks on unemployment claims. The results provide strong evidence that climate shocks significantly increase both initial and continuing claims, with the linear estimates showing a stronger ...
